I think we will see some sort of civil disobedience no matter who wins today. If Romney wins there will be larger scale rioting, mostly in the big city's. And if obama wins it will be more of a celebratory type. Burn a bus or two. Your thoughts please.

Mark my words, we will not know the winner today or any time soon. I have no doubt there will be riots of some scale no matter the outcome. How widespread and how intense remains to be seen. Either way I don't expect to see any action where I'm at.

The only poll that really counts is the one being held today, but as close as all the recent polls are, I don't expect to see the results until tomorrow, at the earliest. Even then, if His Majesty looses by anything less than a landslide, I predict recounts, legal battles & accusations of fraud; which will drag it out even longer.

And that's the only thing that will prevent riots: the hope that a recount will change the outcome. The period of uncertainty will give a chance for people to cool off and think for a bit, and the riots will become less likely as more people become acclimated to the idea of change.

Regardless, I'm reloading more 9mm right now, and the 7.62 is in the tumbler.

Im just glad my wife doesnt have to commute to Philly for work the next couple of nights. If there are issues in the city on the night she has to go back in I will drive her in and will by carrying my slingshot for good measure.
